...Or be a TRUE ADVENTURER: go yourself! read up the run, hone your skills, talk to folks who've done it, and just GO!
Tons of people have run it over the last several decades, and lived to tell the tale. Of course, SO MANY people run it, that occassionally the law of averages do catch up (there are a few undercuts). So be sure to educate yourself and practice general good riverrunning habits.
